Illustration Friday - Return

The place I always return to.

The River Dart in Totnes, my home. This is an old linocut with some new digital colour added. It's a view from my mothers home. I cut the plate whilst sitting on the bank of the river with this view in front of me.

  3. What a nice graphic landscape! It's interesting, I would not have realized it was a linocut if you hadn't said. I like the way you added the bold colors to go with your black ink lines!

  6. This is a lovely picture; I am amazed it is a lino cut, thinking it pen and ink. Your mother has an enviable view.
